I was reading Ann Voskamp's book one thousand gifts and fell in love with her challenge. List 1,000 gifts (things that I love) that God has given.
This blog is dedicated to share those gifts.

About Me

Our Lives Unscripted is 100% the way our family lives. We rarely make plans in advance because LIFE happens.
I truly believe God has a tremendous sense of humor . . . especially when He BLESSED us with FOUR little boys all within five years time.
God has also blessed us with a beautiful daughter . . . she is gorgeous inside and out!
I have been married to my husband Randy for almost 30 years and he is my best friend. Randy was injured when we had only been married 4 years and lives day to day with a permanent handicap to both of his knees.
God sees us through each and every day. Through the challenges and blessings! To Him do we Praise!
